Genius Brands International has acquired two animated series to add to its programming lineup for its new Kid Genius channel, launching on Comcast’s Xfinity On Demand service this September. Joining the offerings are Daytime Emmy-winner Where on Earth Is Carmen Sandiego? and Dennis the Menace, based on the comic strip by Hank Ketcham.
Kid Genius is set to offer a variety of programming for young viewers (toddlers to 12 years old) that align with the company’s mission to provide “content with a purpose.” The channel will also feature GBI original programming, including Thomas Edison’s Secret Lab, Llama Llama and Warren Buffett’s Secret Millionaires Club, as well as other shows from program creators around the world.
